I have the exynos variant. Is it possible to enable double tap to wake the device?
Need this too. Had LG devices for the last year, had double tap to wake sleep too.

I *think* it needs to be a ROM enabled feature.
Only available with a 3rd party AOD app

Which app do you recommend? With very very low battery usage.
I came from an LG and I miss so much the double tap to wake and to sleep..

I wouldn't use any as I prefer the standard AOD.
However, you could try this one...

Ive no idea how much battery it uses.

It has many bad reviews.. There isn't really another way to do it?

I use Nova Prime and have double-tap to sleep, but yeah, the dt2wake is the absent feature that is needed. Every time I pick up my wife's G4 I think about how nice that feature is!
I honestly thought I would miss this feature having used it for 3 years but the home button press is just as easy for me.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamworks.knockz You might want to try knock on from playstore. But AFAIK any solution even a kernel solution will significantly drain your battery. AFAIK the devices hardware needs to be optimized for that feature allowing the digitizer to stay activ in a low powermode ( LG,Sony, etc). Anyone please correct me or add more details. Imo pressing the home isn't that bad. It's a question of habit.
Wake up screen
Hi guys,
Sorry for my bad English.
Here is what you need to do for waking up screen on S7
edge, in order to not to press the home button, or
power button.
You jus simply swipe the edge screen, and the message
With steps and notifications will appear.
When that happens, simply put your finger on home
button. (Touch, not press).
And the device will unlock. I think is the most
convenient way to do that. Not Nova, not rooted.
I hope I make myself understand here.
Have a nice day.
All kinds of stupid suggestions here. Just press the home button once and keep your finger touching the button until it reads the fingerprint. Probably as fast as double tap to wake but your device is also secured.
Double tap to wake is a feature that needs to be enabled programmatically at kernel level and the hardware must support it.
Galaxy S7 does not have this feature, at least at kernel level.
Any application that you install that enables double tap to wake is going to make a partial wake lock. It means that your phone is never going to deep sleep and it will drain battery very fast. You have to choose what you want most.

Go to Settings >Accessibility >Dexterity and Interaction> Easy Screen On
Allows you to wave your hand over the proximity sensor to turn the screen on.

I'm really missing the tap-to-wake from some of my previous phones and I know it's possible on the stock firmware for the S7 Edge.
There are a lot of proximity-based tap-to-wake mods but these are not the same as tap-to-wake.
Now that the snapdragon version is able to be rooted, I'm wondering if any ROMs or Xposed tweaks exist to add this feature?
Potentially stupid question, but is there something wrong with just using the physical home key - that's on the front of the phone?
It's just a preference. The home button works just fine (and is required for finger-print unlock) but double-tap to wake is really convenient for me when using a trusted device, etc.
Nova Launcher has Tap to unlock/wake in it's "Gestures" settings
Did you mean tap to lock? I didn't think it could tap to wake.

Hello,
Last week i got an update for Nougat version & updated it successfully. But i have come across an issue, with Marshmallow even though i didn't activate finger print scanner to wake my screen up when i touch on the finger print scanner it ll wake up my phones screen. but now with Nougat, that doesn't work (or) double tapping the screen also doesn't wake the screen.
Is there any way that i could wake my screen ? (i didn't root my phone so i would prefer non root method)
Thanks in Advance.

Open the "Moto" app -> Display -> Enable the feature.
I think that's the raise-to-wake feature you're looking for.

settings-> security-> fingerprint. set up the FP here to unlock the phone
"Gesture settings" are not part of stock N, they are in custom N ROMs like CM14.1
my wife has the same issue, it´s now raise to wake. in marshmallow, when you haven´t set any fingerprints to the phone, the fingerprint reader used to wake the screen, the exact same behavior of the power button, in nougat they got rid of this feature (im guessing).
I am facing same issue.
Hi, is any way for double tap the screen and wake up the phone or show the screen notifications?
I place the phone almost all day in my desk and i need to wake up the phone without touch the back of the phone.

Use ambi turner app with wave gesture. Much more convenient than double tap on screen [emoji846]

I didn't notice any increased usage of battery.
Any other options? because i want tap the phone an wake up.
I have Nova Launcher, maybe this app can help?
When we will have sources and custom kernels or roms, this feature will be possible.
Right now, no way Jose
No, Nova Launcher don't have any options for that.
I hope that the kernel will be released soon... The double tap wakeup is on my wishlist as well!
" Gravity screen " is another app that you can use.

I have disabled always on display and my d2tw does not work instantly like it did on my 5t. It stuck on the screen lock sometimes even when i press power button and come to life after few tries. D2tw is not working on every try. It misses often. Any body facing that, any of it?
I disabled double tap and enabled single tap to wake. So fare I did not have any issues waking up the phone.

It's working fine... With this option.
But single tap enables only Ambient Display and you can't use face unlock right?
I only use fingerprint, which works after a single tap. Sorry.

Actually that does work, my double tap also doesn't work all the time. If you tab one time at the fingerprint area it will wake.
single tap can be activated under display/active display (inactivity display?) or however it is named in the English version
